Thanks for the info. I've done that in the past, but it didn't work. Now it works when I get the "Swifter" mop and scoot his bowl. Then he gets upset and scarfs it down~! I've been away for the morning and got back and his bowl wasn't touch. But he was ready to play and he did eat all of his amount I put down. A long time ago, I met a Vet outside of his practice and he told me that a dog can go up to 3 days without eating, which is normal. He also told me that dogs don't eat a set time when they are in the wild, so sitting the bowl down at a precise time or the 20 minute routine may not be my answer. Humm...makes sense to me. |
A dog can survive for a couple of days without eating but it is not something you should do with a puppy. A growing puppy could very well become hypoglycmeic. Puppies that do not get the proper nutrition when they are growing are more likely to suffer illness and bone issues when they are mature. |

I feed both of my dogs once in the morning. Well, that is when I fill their bowls, if they choose to eat it all at once that's up to them! Blazer had only been grazing but now, the past couple of days, I've noticed that he is eating more at one time, in the morning, and not having a lot left for the rest of the day so I think I'll have to start breaking up his quantities for him. |
I feed them once in the morning and once at night. They are on raw food now, so they gobble it right up! They also get tiny treats here and there. :) |
